Annual Performance Review Process for all Department of Extension Faculty

2025 CALENDAR YEAR – PROCESS AND DETAILS

Cases via Interfolio are due by January 30

Documentation provided by the faculty member to inform the FACULTY annual review

  1. Prepare information needed for your report:
  1. Ensure all Extension teaching has been entered into the Engage: Extension Data Portal. Engage is the source of data for this section. Items completed by 5 p.m. will appear in Interfolio at 6 a.m. the next morning. Extension faculty should never enter this data directly into Interfolio.
  2. Using details in the 2026 Insights for Consistency on Extension Dossiers and Annual Performance Reports update your activities sections in Interfolio. NOTE: Introduction section and narratives are not required.
  3. The three-year EEET summary data report should be generated by the faculty member via the EEET Dashboard in Tableau (go.osu.edu/EEET_dashboards). For more information on how to generate the report, visit the LOD website go.osu.edu/EEETreports).
  4. Have ready at least one peer evaluation of teaching letter received during the review period (per calendar year) for probationary faculty. One letter every four years for tenured faculty.
  5. Complete a Year-End Self Review & Goals of your highlights and impacts for the current year (Word doc will auto-download). This document includes details for your goals.
  1. Once the above items are ready, follow these step-by-step instructions (2025 Annual Performance Review Submission Instructions) to load and submit your Annual Performance Review materials.
  2. After your case is submitted, your CV/dossier should be updated and re-posted yearly at your county/unit faculty web page. All current faculty web page links can be accessed at: List of OSU Extension Faculty (scroll to the personnel listing section on the bottom of the page).
  3. Probationary Faculty Only – Plan to submit an updated Dossier to associate chair prior to your winter meeting. The associate chair will meet with all probationary faculty annually as described in the Department of Extension Appointments, Promotion, and Tenure (APT) document. This meeting with the associate chair does not replace the performance review meeting with the direct supervisor.
